On Jul-13-15 at 17:31:40 PDT, eller added the following information: Okay, ve received a lot of emails that have asked the same questions, o I will answer the more common ones on here instead of repeating myself over and over again.The car does have a new battery, t does have nice "OOOMPAAA -OOOMPAAA"dual glass packed exhaust, he engine doesnt use oil, ut it does make a puff of smoke when you first start it up valve guides), hich is why I had a set of heads redone for the car, ts just the front shocks that are worn, he 4 speed was overhauled prior to me, ut has less than 3000 miles on it, he clutch works fine, t just has a little chatter when you first start out, m sure the pressure plate and/or flywheel needs to be turned, eattle hills are hell on clutches, he gauges work including tach however the oil pressure gauge has a mind of its own, ve added a new sending unit, ometimes it works, ometimes it does not, here is an owners manual, he jack, ack base and tire iron is all there, do not have a spare for it. the bumpers on both ends are VERY straight and bright, he only dent it had when I got it was in the RF fender, t had a crease, o I replaced it with another 442 fender, t has new headlights, nd I also have another set of taillights for it as well. I imagine the A/C would work if it had a compressor and a pressure hose, hats the only thing missing, he cruise did work until the other day, m thinking it is a fuse,I have not researched that yet. YES,the car runs great, ut could most likely use a tune up, he spark plug brand is "MIGHTY", hich I know my dad used in his shop back in the 80s, ut it has ran so good this far I havent bothered to change them,.. If you have anymore questions please feel free to ask. |
